Noonan syndrome is typically a genetically inherited disorder with heterogeneous phenotypic manifestations that can change with age. The most consistent features are wide-set eyes, low-set ears, short stature, and pulmonic stenosis. Noonan syndrome is typically inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. At least 8 gene mutations can cause this syndrome, and patient presentation can range from mild to severe. 5, record 1, English, - Noonan%20syndrome

Le syndrome de Noonan est un syndrome d'origine génétique qui se manifeste par un aspect particulier des traits du visage, des malformations du cœur et une petite taille. [...] Le syndrome de Noonan touche indifféremment les garçons et les filles. Cette maladie n'est pas spécifique d'une population ou d'une région particulières. [...] Beaucoup de manifestations de la maladie sont présentes dès la naissance, mais elles sont discrètes et peu spécifiques. C'est pourquoi le diagnostic de syndrome de Noonan est souvent tardif (entre 5 et 10 ans) lorsqu'il n'y a pas de rétrécissement de la valve pulmonaire ou de cardiomyopathie. Les particularités du visage s'estompent à l'âge adulte. 6, record 1, French, - syndrome%20de%20Noonan

syndrome de Turner masculin; syndrome de Turner mâle : Ces désignations vieillies laissent entendre que les personnes de sexe féminin ne peuvent pas être atteintes de ce syndrome, ce qui est erroné. 7, record 1, French, - syndrome%20de%20Noonan
